Great guide - super experienced
Paulo was an amazing guide! He was so engaged with us the entire trip and truly knew so much about the history of Lisbon. He was super nice and able to take pictures of your whole family. Amazing guide!!
very beautiful experience, we enjoyed our tour with paulo!!
Diogo was our guide and did a fantastic job showing as the old city and telling us the history and culture as we went. It was so well done on our first trip that we asked him to do a second trip in the Belém area.
What a wonderful tour with Marco! Our family of four had an amazing time being shown the sights and landmarks in Lisbon and would highly recommend touring with Marco. He was prompt, professional, fun, knowledgeable, and courteous…we are extremely lucky to have had him as our guide.
Marco is extremely kind and well informed on the history and sights of the city. We loved our tour with him! We enjoyed as a family of four with two elementary aged children- good for all!
We took a tuk-tuk tour of Lisbon’s historic old city with Thomas, and it was incredible. The narrow, winding streets of the old town can be daunting to navigate on foot, but Thomas handled them effortlessly. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating history and pointing out hidden gems we definitely would have missed on our own. He also knew exactly where to stop for the best panoramic views of the city. If you want a fun, informative, and memorable way to see the heart of Lisbon, book a tour with Thomas. Highly recommended!
It was simply fun. The young driver was very nice and explained everything well. The 1.5 hours were worth it!
I was there in May with my uncle visiting Lisbon. We use Gonzalo for three days on a tuck tuck tour and it was fabulous. He’s such a good informative and funny tour guide loved every minute.
Big fun with ines 😅 she sang fado for us
